QoL suggestions - lfm and loot

[Micki]

I'm sure these things have been mentioned but I'd like to mention them again if so.

First of all - when it comes to posting an lfm. Can we please get a search bar for when we want to post an lfm? Every single time I am posting for something I'm sitting there scrolling trying to spot the thing I'm looking for. Level or alphabetic sorting doesn't help, when I don't remember the full name or level of the quest. Even when I know the level, it's sometimes a nuisance trying to spot the name.

And speaking of the lfm, I don't like that the checkboxes now automatically update your lfm. I've more than once posted for the wrong raid because I clicked one of the check boxes, then looked for the raid in the quest list - I had intended to click on "update lfm" once I was done, but the lfm updated already when I checked the box.

Then when it comes to bound items in chests and passing loot. I would like two things: first, add a confirmation window so you don't pass loot to the wrong person by mistake (this happens way too often) and two, don't let us pass loot to someone who is recalling or outside the quest/ raid. Passing loot to someone who can't loot it and having to leave it in the chest is not fun for anyone.

Thank you for your time.

Alas, SSG could not possibly care less about public play in DDO. They are content on leaking player base because they tell themselves private co-op is somehow productive to the game's life.
Bleeding money every day by not supporting and incentivizing LFM, but I guess they must hate money so we shouldn't judge.

In my opinion the biggest problem is rather the power gap.

These are all good suggestions.

With regards loot passing, I offer a related suggestion. When passing loot to someone and that person does not collect the item within 60 seconds, revert the item back to the original owner. More than once I passed an item to someone upon request, then the person left without bothering to loot, thus denying the item to another person.

Free for All would make another nice loot feature. Instead of passing loot to a specific person, allow us to make any and all items Free for All. The first person to loot a Free for All item gets it. For example, I look inside a chest, see nothing I want, hit Free for All, and leave. Now anyone left in the dungeon who wants the stuff can take it. Even better, if someone leaves a dungeon without looting a chest, automatically make all their loot Free for All.

/signed. Why should I have to know the Heroic-level-equivalent of a quest I never run in Heroic when I want to put up an LFM for an Epic quest? Why should I have to scroll through the whole list of names to try to figure out if it's "Stay at the Inn", "A Stay at the Inn", or "The Stay at the Inn"?

Agree...just have search/autofill form (optional: remember your favorite quests then you have to type in less letters to get suggestions): Type "stay", get suggested "A Stay at the Inn" since there is only 1 quest with stay in the title. Type "Kobo..." get suggested the 5 quests with Kobold in the name.

For loot I'd like to see a loot roll option: Need, then it's the same as now, get item yourself after confirming bound popup.
Pass, then anyone else can roll on it, if nobody has rolled within ~60sec, or everyone else has left the instance, item goes to the player who had it in chest.
